version control is referring to a type of software that manages the iterations of your code for you (thats a pretty base description). you can read about one form of version control here: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
I've tried Subversion and Mercurial, but as a solo developer used to working with folders of files (websites) it's very hard to see any speeding up of my process.
often I want a copy of a CSS file so the changes I'm making can be undone en-masse.
I'll also make a myriad of changes to several files to get a desired result and having to comment each change or commit is counter productive.
If I could get into the habit, it might help, but it doesn't seem to bring any benefits to me at this point...
any other web developers/builders using Version Control Systems want to share workflow? or point to a step by step?
